WvW players are such a great source of content. You wipe the floor with someone who’s got backup/help in a like 1v3 situation and they immediately get angry and keep coming back tilted just to die again lol
Yeah, I like this sort of build simply because you have so many tools for any scenario. The skill ceiling on this is higher than a nade build, so I'm going to keep at it for a while and see how I get on.
How do i face away running backwards like that? I cant do that even if i dont use camera lock. It just makes me go backwards and using about faces makes my camera turn with where my character is facing
There are a few guides knocking around. You need to make sure 'free camera' is checked in settings, then you will need to let go of RMB and click LMB before about face. It decouples the camera from the direction you are facing. I press LMB quickly now before about face as a habit xD Also, if you press RMB too soon after about face, it will swivel everything around again. It will just take some practice to get the timing down.
Yeah, I'll play this build for a bit and see how it goes once I run into some decent players. The grenade build was stupidly strong against just about anything, so really this is an attempt to find something else viable/fun to play.
To be honest I'm not a huge fan of rifle at the moment. It did have a few buffs, but also the AA was nerfed again more recently. The idea behind this build is maximising interrupts/CC, and Mace/Shield has 5 options for CC, plus a lot of sustain/block/reflect.. You could probably get away with doing a rifle version, but there are many situations where that would result in you getting eaten alive :)
Yeah, definitely worth considering.. Especially if you're running hammer instead of mace/shield. I'll give it a whirl at some point! You'd get a really long stealth with so many finishers too
@@RcTamiya91 yeah, i tried shortbow with this build too and it works well for damage projection at range (explosive entrance+bunker down) but i can see it working better on Holo. Scrapper with shortbow feels a bit helpless against multiple opponents without mobility or block
@@ProzapGW yea, i also tried a pure cc version using two turrets, i managed to lock down a single target for 30 seconds as holo with SB xD And ye the target used its stunbreaks
@@ProzapGW [&DQMVOy8vOS4qDxQBJgGGAIgAjQETARMBiQGJAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADNQBXADYAAA==] holobuild with SB, sigil on cc for quickness ist a must have, iam running sigil of vision for more burst on swaps and dragon gear with scholar runes and relic of midnight king (even more burst)
I just missed april 1st. Tbh its not bad and a lot of fun to play. I just dueled a good thief for the last half an hour and won the vast majority of the duels (maybe 80%?). I feel it has good counter-pressure/unpredictable spike damage but sometimes lacks the chase ability or ranged damage pressure that you get with nades. For roaming its decent, but you get shut down by heavy stab users. If you are looking for a build that you always want to win with, pick any number of hammer grenade builds. If you want something different where you have to work a bit harder for your win, this is a good one.
I believe this was a combination of berserker, marauder and then durability runes? I've recently changed to running full berserker and infiltration, deadeye or scholar runes, depending on your preference for crit chance vs crit damage. Personally I prefer deadeye as its in the middle. You don't really need the boon duration or toughness, and the damage is significantly more oppressive, which is important on this build.
I'm using Chronomancer relic for the quickness. I just realised the relic wasn't on my build screen shot.. my bad! Mortar feels too slow without quickness! 😅
It could, although I think the damage output might be too low.. also you can see I'm already very tanky even with marauders thanks to the protection, barrier and healing power with Regen inventions minor trait.. 99% of the build's damage is strike damage too.
Slightly less than function gyro. Normally ~3k against most. A good chunk of these opponents were cele or condi, so less than that against those. I think the scaling is 0.95 vs function gyro's 1.0 (or mortar auto attack 1.0)
Another point of reference is the rockets from aim-assisted-rocket (explosives) which have 0.5 scaling, so the bunker down mines do almost double the damage of each rocket.
A lot of damage can be mitigated by moving and breaking line of sight etc, I think once you learn to move well in fights it gets easier! Mobility skills/leaps, superspeed and relic of speed are definitely your friend, as well as controls like 'about face' 😊
@@finnleyjack331 The build is shown at the start of the video. I would use hammer instead of rifle if you dont have access to mace. Hammer is probably a better weapon than mace/shield anyway (it is my favourite by quite some distance)...
@@ProzapGW I know, but rifle is so short on the cooldown and has a lot of utility and a controllable mobility skill. It can also cleanse 3 movement imparing conditions while also dealing decent aoe damage. Hammer as much as it is great, it feels clunky for me
Ridiculous! A full berserker warrior deals 500 on non critical hits on auto attacks and 1000 critical hits on auto attacks and these classes hit you for 2k to 5k on range attacks. This is disgusting!
Build in this case?

Well tbh, u can play 1v5 against ppl from aurora glade with your schlong and still win.
Yeah that herald had me chuckling 😂
This honestly looks like a blast. i gotta give it a shot later.

It’s nice to see someone picking up the torch the mighty Wolfineer left behind
Big shoes to fill
@@ProzapGW big shoes to… Walk On [Walk]
The spirit of Wolfineer lives on! 🐺
Fantastic as always. Return of the toolkit makes me happy 😃
You and me both!

Wait till you meet a thief and guardian that knows what they doing, those two just throwing random sht around 😅

@@ProzapGW Yup, Nade kit is real strong if Holos and Scrappers use it, Mechanists just way too damn weak for pvp
I gotta ask, can you make a build like this but you use rifle instead cuz the lower base cooldown really does come in handy

How about smoke field in inventions? Good option for escape

@@ProzapGW shortbow instead of hammer also works though, testing a slightly different build too, but i love it as holo variant more

Wow, this looks amazing, Ty for sharing! is ot possible to know if you are running marauder? and sigils? ty in advance!
Thanks! I hope you have fun with it. Yes, it's marauder with 2 dragon trinkets, energy/cleansing and Chrono relic.
Thank you very much! I'll give it a try as soon as I hear it up :)@@ProzapGW
Rune?@@ProzapGW
I can’t tell if this is a meme build or his actual roaming

What's the equipment/rune/sigil/relic load out on this build?
I swap gear around often, but most recently it's marauder with 2 dragon trinkets, durability runes, energy/cleansing and Chrono relic
I love it
what gear do you use?

they should remove quickness from every class in wvw and pvp its not fair.
huh, what about stuff like chrono relic, rage/celerity sigils?
Ur so stupid dont play gw2 ever
There are very few ways for engi to get reliable quickness now, outside of relics/sigils.
any recommended build for WvW roaming now days ? love scrapper!
